American Drug Addict: a memoir Page 29

by Brett Douglas


  I’m not sure what I’m going to do next. The uncertainty of the future is exciting, as well as frightening. But I know what I’m not going to do. I’m not going to use any mood or mind altering substances.

  Just for today.

  Who knows what tomorrow will bring.

  Note to Self

  by

  The Divine Comedy

  Monday

  Restate my assumptions

  Heaven and hell

  Do not exist

  Tuesday

  Restate my assumptions

  If you die you do so

  At your own risk

  Into the heart of darkness

  Beyond the point of no return

  Wednesday

  Restate my assumptions

  Beauty is not

  The same thing as youth

  Thursday

  Restate my assumptions

  Only one thing beautiful

  That's the truth

  Into the heart of darkness

  Beyond the point of no return

  What the fuck is happening?

  Where has everybody gone?

  What the hell is going on?

  There is nothing as frightening as being alone

  Friday

  Restate my assumptions

  The writer writes for himself

  Not for you

  Saturday

  Restate my assumptions

  A song is not a song

  Until it's listened to
